You Will Need :

Glass Bottle

Dough Flowers

Transparent glue

Spray Paint & Glass Paints.

Wash the empty glass bottle & let it dry well.

Use transparent glue on the area where you want to paste some soft dough.

Make a thick strip of soft dough & fix it on the bottle the way you want. I put it in a light swirl on the bottle. Coat it with transparent glue.

Start fixing dry dough flowers on soft dough strip. If your dough strip is thin, You will not be able to fix flowers nicely. You need to have a thick layer in which flowers can be easily fixed. You can glue the back side of the flowers & embellishment for fixing more well.

After pasting & fixing all flowers, Let it dry. transparent glue will disappear in an hour & dough will be stable in few hours. Dough will not get dry in an hour, It will take 24 hours minimum as the strip is applied thick.

After 24 hours, I spray paint the bottle. I wore plastic gloves to save my hands from spray shower & spread a sheet on the floor as well to protect the surface from spray paint.

Paint the bottle from all sides. I use silver spray paint, It’s grey when wet & turned silver in an hour when gets dry.

Voila.. How is it? Where is glass bottle? It looks complete metal bottle. Right?

I paint some glass paints on the flowers, petals & fillers. A touch of soft colors looks more proper I guess. What do you think?
